"It was very laid back. The interviewers were a DO who was very talkative(which is a good thing) and a MSII. No crazy ethical scenarios or criticisms of my record, just a casual conversation and a chance for me to get to know the school. I believe the interview was partially open-file. They did not ask anything about grades or experiences, but knew I was in graduate school." Report Response
